DRIVING LESSENS

In rural South Jersey, a car means freedom. In an unwilling act of neighborly compassion after a tragedy, Thea Lucas drives her classmate Rob Kelly to school every morning. The 2016 Presidential Election looms over the country, the machine of high school gossip rages — Thea and Rob drive.

 

​DRIVING LESSENS  invites audiences to live in the claustrophobic confines of one car on the open road — and, by extension, the view from the dashboard when you’re only seventeen and don’t really know yet how to articulate the things that matter the most. This play explores road rage, election anxiety, situationships, invisible forms of self-harm, and the lengths someone will go to before they’ll say, “I’m sorry.”
